Synopsis "Racing to Armageddon (in English)"

November 1942. As World War Two hangs in the balance a man waits at a remote airfield in the Caucasus. He holds the knowledge that could bring ultimate victory. He is Dr Dimitri Vlasenin, Hero of the Soviet Union and Nobel Prize-winning physicist. Disillusioned by the horrors of Stalinism he attempting to escape to the West. But Stalin's secret police have other ideas. Captured en route and taken to the Soviet consulate in Istanbul he is tortured to reveal the whereabouts of a briefcase containing his most recent findings. He holds out, but his interrogator is an expert in breaking his subject's resistance . . . Meanwhile the intelligence services of both sides have learnt of Vlasenin's location. The British send in a rescue team led by the veteran Major Alexander Rawlings. But Nazi Germany and fascist Italy also want the ultimate prize of war - and alliances have ceased to matter . . . From the Kremlin corridors of power to the teeming streets of Istanbul and the mountains of occupied Greece, Rawlings' mission becomes an epic journey in which loyalties and ideals face the ultimate test, and his deadliest enemies may be within his own team . . . J V Robson's debut novel is a war thriller in the classic tradition as well as an 'origin story' of the nuclear age. As a new world is born, the fate of Dr Vlasenin will decide not just the war, but the peace as well . . .
